Do you think it looks any better?

This week I had a wonderful breakthrough in the world of home organization. I am not extremely good at keeping my house free of clutter and I usually just adapt to the mess and forget it's there. Last week when we came back from vacation, I realized something could actually be done to improve the disastrous situation that we call home. I selected one area of our house to focus on which happens to be the craziest, most cluttered area I have ever seen. Let's see if you agree that the buffet is an improvement to the "organization" I had before.

The before shot:



And, the after:



I really love it.

I am very impressed with your after shot. It looks great. I have a number of areas in my house that far out-do your before shot though. Hmmm ... I'm wondering if I am doing too much blogging and not enough tidying!

I have the same problem at my place. I adapt to the mess. Why do we do that? Lol. Excellent idea.
